Chapter 7: Hunting at the New Year's Pass
Seeing their expressions, I demonstrated on the spot, stepped forward sideways, and pulled out Chen Ning's sword, because my movements were not fast, so Chen Ning did not have a reflexive blocking action, and the next second I raised my sword and cut off my left arm.
"Ahh
Although the pain was incomparable, this cry was not made by me, it was made by Wu Shuang, not only Wu Shuang, but everyone else was stunned.
When the blood spurted out and splashed on the ground, I quickly recited the mantra, pinched the trick with one hand, cast the dead wood in spring, and after three breaths, my left arm reappeared.
Heavy on my left arm, I put my hands together again, continued to chant the incantation, and cast fire magic to burn the severed arm on the ground to ashes, after doing this, I turned my head to look at the 30 elite warriors, as far as my eyes could see, they either lowered their eyes or lowered their heads, and no one dared to look at me.
This alone convinced them!
The audience was full of silence, Chen Ning came back to his senses as quickly as possible, and immediately yelled at the martial arts arena: "What are you still doing in a daze!" Go get all your weapons! ”
"Attention, the heart and head are injured and there is no surgery." I advise.
Chen Ning nodded, shouted my words again towards the square, and then raised his hand respectfully towards me: "Patriarch Wu is really a hero!"
I waved my hand and didn't say anything, focusing my attention on the martial arts arena, with my magic cultivation at this time, it was enough to support them for half a day of bleeding training.
At the end of the night, at eleven o'clock in the evening, I was meditating cross-legged on my bed when Li Meng knocked on the door.
"Childe, didn't bother you, did you?" Li Meng closed the door with his backhand after entering the house.
"No, what's the matter with me?" I pointed to the stool next to the table and motioned for her to sit down and talk, not feeling awkward about her late-night visit, because Li Meng was dressed very neatly and modestly.
After Li Meng sat down, he took the pot and poured water: "Childe, I have gained a lot today, the books in the library of the town guard mansion are very rich, and I have seen a long time, among which there is a "History of the Five Dynasties" that I can understand is very exciting, which roughly records the five eras that our human race has experienced since the beginning of its birth."
Li Meng handed me water, and I smiled and waved my hand as I motioned for her to continue.
"The first era, the age of the fire. The Terrans are very weak and can only huddle together for warmth. This era has gone through a long time, but the exact length of time is not recorded in the book. ”
"The second era, the era of guardianship. The Terran and the Elves made a covenant, learned the elven magic, and became stronger, in order to repay the Elves, the Terrans built towers to swear to protect the elves forever, and these built towers are called, the Oath of Guardianship! ”
"In the third era, the age of the Sage, there were peak powerhouses in the human race, and they were called Sages."
"The Fourth Age, the Age of Natural Disasters, is unknown, and it is said that many civilizations have been cut off because of this."
"In the fifth age, the age of the gods, the human race gave birth to strong men comparable to the saints, and they were called gods. And we are now in the glory of the age of the gods. ”
After Li Meng finished speaking, he glanced at me with his afterglow, and saw that I was pondering, so he picked up the glass of water again, looked at me again, and drank it all when he saw that I didn't react, and then quickly said: "Childe, I heard that Lord Li invited you to lead a team to participate in the New Year's Hunt, is it true?"
"Yes." I nodded.
"I see." Li Meng said casually, "Hunting once a year at the end of the year, in the early morning of the new year, all the adult men in the town will go out with bows and arrows to hunt wild beasts, and they will return with their prey before the early morning of the next day. And all the adult women in the town will also dress up and stand on the city wall to wait for the men to return. If a man likes a woman and sends her prey, the woman accepts the prey and expresses her willingness to be with the man. If a woman likes a man, she will ask the man for prey, and the man will give it to express his willingness to be with the woman. ”
I smiled and nodded.
Seeing that I listened with relish, Li Meng continued: "Hunting at the New Year's Pass has three meanings, and this is only one of them. Second, if there are outstanding young people who come back with powerful beasts or even wild beasts, they will be absorbed by some powerful forces, such as academies and sects...... Third, it is the matter that Gongzi promised Lord Li, and the hunting at the end of the year also represents the competition between various towns, which determines the funding for the coming year to a certain extent. ”
Li Meng naturally didn't say the word 'funding', but she meant it.
I smiled and nodded: "What you said is indeed what I want to know, if you have a heart, go back and rest early, and come back at this time tomorrow night, I will pass on your magic cultivation method of the Earth Sect."
"Thank you, Childe!" Li Meng was overjoyed, this time he did not bow to me, but bent down and saluted, deep on the ground, and his tone was sincere.
After Li Meng left, I frowned and thought about one thing, one thing was certain, although she couldn't know where I was from, she definitely knew that I was no longer Wu Qingtian.
According to the information provided by Li Meng, it is certain that I am from the Second Era, the Guardian Era! But why am I born again? What is the significance of my rebirth? Is there something waiting for me to do...... These are all questions worth pondering.
Can't figure it out!
I shook my head slightly, in the end, I can only return to the darkness, and my own providence rules everything, and when the time comes, maybe I will understand!
Early in the morning of the second day, some people came to serve and wash, but I was not used to this, so I sent them away. I have a second-order magic cultivation, and my need for food is very small, so I stay in the arena almost all day to heal the injured guards.
In the evening, as the sun was approaching, Li Meng came again, and like last night, she was dressed very decently.
I don't talk nonsense, I don't like to hide my secrets, I get straight to the point, and teach each other: "The so-called Earth Sect Magic Power Cultivation Method is actually a spiritual power cultivation method, in addition to the Earth Sect Magic Power, there are also Heavenly Sect Magic Power and Human Sect Magic Power, and magic power is spiritual power......
I began to talk endlessly, because spiritual power is a more ethereal thing, so the content is more long, and I only talked about a small part in the middle of the night, but in fact, the content is not only more than a lot but also obscure, and it is very difficult to listen to the smart Li Meng.
But Li Meng didn't want to go, so I could only keep talking until dawn and she finally yawned, so I took the opportunity to end the lecture and let her go to rest and come early tomorrow.
Li Meng saluted me apologetically, and was about to leave when he suddenly turned around and asked me, "Childe, can you help me test my soul vein, is there any possibility for me to become a magician?"
I paused and asked rhetorically, "What is a soul vein?" Is it that you can only learn magic if you have a soul vein? ”
Li Mengwaner nodded: "Yes." The soul vein is divided into nine yin and nine yang, the most male is the nine yang soul vein, and the woman is the most nine yin soul vein, and each more yin and one yang can learn one more system of magic. I've seen Childe use fire-based magic, water-based magic, and wood-based magic, so Childe is at least a three-yang soul vein. ”
"You can learn magic without a soul vein, it should be that your cultivation system is deviant," I asked with a smile, "Do you want to learn?" ”
This time, Li Meng did not answer immediately, but hesitated and pondered, shook his head and said, "I think I think, but I don't learn."
